It is very different from the corona OC43 and others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chilli42 Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 Is there any doubt that there is a rather strong undercurrent of xenophobia in Thailand. It’s everywhere from land ownership, opening a business to dual pricing at tourist attractions. I guess what the authorities don’t like is going public with it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Pedrogaz Posted February 3, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 3, 2020 You don't usually see 'Police' and 'act' in the same sentence; they are famous for their inactivity. I would love to know what 'Police acting' looks like if anyone has a video. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

banagan Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 The Chinese created this mess and are the ones spreading it, seems fair enough if a private business wants to deny them entry. Lumping all non Thais in, that's a bit dumb, but, if they're that paranoid... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I owned a restaurant I too would not want any section of the population who could kill me by passing on an easily transmissible virus. The racist, PC mob can get stuffed. Out of an abundance of caution I reserve my right and that of any staff to remove the risk at source not via an ineffective mask. Or you could exercise you freedom of choice and simply close you establishment until further notice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are simply trying to be careful. I'm sure they would rather have tourists in their restaurant because that = Money Many years ago car manufacturers were able to get rid of the corosavirus. lol Edited February 3, 2020 by hugocnx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DLock Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 I agree, his choice if he doesn't want potential coronovirus infected people. ...but how do massage shop deal with Chinese clients?

Captain 776 Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 Corona is serious and spreading like crazy.

I have no problem with Chinese I have lived and worked there for 5 yrs..... xbut ya cant put the Gorona Genie back in the bottle....... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peixotorms Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 This is what happens when Thailand kicks out farangs and depends so much on the chinese. It's time to realize that relying on chinese money, is not going to end well for Thailand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonnit Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 (edited) 5 hours ago, lensta said: 100% agree with you holy cow cm I also agree. My wife and I came down with the swine flu in the 80's and for several days, even though we were fairly young and healthy, seriousy thought we might not survive it. We never missed the high dose flu vaccination since that day and are very careful when there is a chance of being around someone with the flu. We are both now 75 and probably could not survive this current strain. I would be happy to visit an establishment with this sign posted. It not only may protect the employees, but also unsuspecting customers. Edited February 3, 2020 by jonnit 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
recom273 Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 2 hours ago, Mattd said: Most International airports have lanes for their citizens, including European airports, with most having EU & Non-EU lanes, nothing unusual or wrong with this at all. Totally agree, but I find it ironic that the police felt the need to step in and solve the problem, when after my experience yesterday, the airport immigration need a good shake up and lessons in customer service. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritManToo Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 Restaurant should have just put up a sign saying foreigners pay 4x the Thai price. Totally legal (according to the Thai government parks). Would have ensured no foreign customers without upsetting the police. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffinChonburi Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 Shut it down, send a message. Next it will be White Westerners that have visited Australia. Only answer in Thailand is shut it down. At least for a while. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dallen52 Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 Polite racial discrimination. Only in Thailand.

Among such countries are the US, Australia and Japan. Er. 6 hours ago, outsider said: Going by the stupid owner/manager's logic, it seems that only Thais are unaffected and will never be carriers of this virus. Must be feeling quite good to be so superior, one assumes. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
